Antique Chinese Blue and White Porcelain Tripod Censer Monster Paw Feet 17c Ming
About the Item
This antique Ming Chinese tripod censer is a masterful example of blue and white porcelain artistry. The censer features a well-proportioned body that is underglaze decorated with the "Three Friends of Winter"—pine, plum, and bamboo. These motifs are not only aesthetically pleasing but also carry significant cultural symbolism, representing resilience, beauty, and integrity, respectively.
The censer is raised on striking monster and paw tripod feet, which are accented in underglaze blue. These feet add a touch of whimsy and grandeur, elevating the piece both physically and artistically.
What sets this censer apart is its integral hexagonal stand. The stand is not merely functional but also serves as an extension of the art piece itself. The borders of the stand are meticulously decorated in underglaze blue, creating a harmonious visual continuity with the censer.
This Ming-era blue and white porcelain tripod censer is a magnificent blend of form, function, and symbolism. Its intricate details and meaningful motifs make it a highly collectible piece, ideal for connoisseurs of Chinese art and history.
